Moving? Add These To-Dos To Your Checklist

Moving takes time and effort to organize. There are many professionals, such as Isaac’s Moving and Storage, who can help you. If you plan to take care of the bulk of the job yourself, here are a few to-dos to add to your checklist:

  • Packing

You will need packing materials. This is where a storage company can help you. Invest in a variety of boxes and storage solutions so that your items can be packed and transported carefully. Remember to mark the boxes so that the movers know where to place them in your new home.

  • Get Rid Of Unwanted Items

When you start to pack, you will quickly become aware of all the unused items that you have collected over the years. Instead of moving these items to your new home (and essentially cluttering your new space), set them aside to give away or sell. Also, consider items that you won’t need in your new home. If you are moving to a smaller space in a cooler climate, for example, you might not want to take all your furniture and summer sport kits with you.

  • Storage Hire

If the date of your packing, move and move-in date don’t align, you may need to store your items somewhere. You can rent storage space from an international moving company such as Isaac’s Moving and Storage. This is also a good option if you have items that you are not ready to sell, but don’t necessarily have space for in your new home.

  • Make A Timeline

Relocating can be overwhelming. To avoid confusion and complications, create a list of the things you need to get done according to your timeline. Check off items as you progress so that you can stay on top of everything.

  • Moving Insurance

Many of your possessions are priceless or, at the very least, costly to replace. Moving insurance can ensure that if your items are damaged and/or lost during the move, you will be able to replace them. It is affordable and a must-have for those who want peace of mind throughout the moving process.

  • Close Accounts And Change Addresses

Make sure that you close your utility accounts and change your address so that all your post is delivered to your new address. Use this period to also fix anything that needs to be fixed for the new tenant or owner of your home, such as plumbing issues or cracked roof tiles.
